Thinning stands
Forestry work continues at a pace around the forest, and the results of
timber thinning is evident on the sides of the tracks, with the sweet
fragrant smell of freshly sawn conifer filling the air. The scale of
extraction is something, as is
the change in aspect. You'd seen the marked
trees walking past for months, but it was hard to visualize it done. I
had a
chat with the guys doing the thinning, a son, with his father
who'd started as a boy with his father, a family of lumberjacks, cool.
If you can, take the time to chat with folk, everyone has
something to say, and there's always something for you to learn.
